Approche historique de la lutte contre les épidémies et les pandémies par les « pouvoirs publics »

Abstract

Omnipresent in the history of humanity, the epidemic risk seemed to spare us, we stored it in the history of medical thought and health law. The alerts of the past few years have not been enough to raise awareness, we are helpless in the face of an unknown scourge. A dive into history allows us, without further pretension, to recall the major stages in the fight against epidemics and pandemic.
